HomeSmart is a suite of technology and automation features that harness internet-connected devices to help homeowners enhance comfort and control; security and access; and WiFi connectivity. It is the newest addition to LivingSmart, a multi-faceted program Pardee launched in 2001 to advance higher performance homes and to conserve natural resources.

Pardee Homea is a member of TRI Pointe Group (NYSE: TPH), a family of six premium regional homebuilders. Today, LivingSmart is integrated throughout the six builder brands that comprise TRI Pointe Group.

HomeSmart debuted at Pardee’s award-winning Arista neighborhood in Aliento, a master-planned community being developed by Pardee. Aliento’s new neighborhoods also include Pardee’s 55+ collection of Verano, TRI Pointe’s Lucera and Tierno, and Pardee’s Cresta, which opens this spring. See more about Arista.

All Aliento neighborhoods incorporate HomeSmart standards and options. While choices vary by neighborhood, included features at each facilitate all manner of things related to the smooth operation of one’s castle.

“Managing many household tasks is as easy as issuing a voice command, whether you’re at home or away,” said Lyndsay Fuller, Sales and Marketing Director for Pardee Homes LA Ventura. See how HomeSmart helps with multi-tasking.

Pardee turned to Amazon and Samsung to craft the HomeSmart package for Arista. Voice-activated features include garage door openers, front door locks, thermostats–and a smart doorbell that shows you who just arrived. Also standard are LED lighting and USB 4 Ports for kitchens and bedrooms.

Arista’s HomeSmart features can help with diverse pressing issues, as you see here.

Pardee’s HomeSmart can integrate with multiple platforms and enhancements as new products come to market. “The shared goal was to identify useful, real-world features with staying power,” said Little. “A DIY-centric package makes it easy for Aliento homeowners to turn directly to brand suppliers for additional features, and augment the base as they desire.”

Visitors who tour Arista can explore all things LivingSmart in a dedicated room at the sales center, complete with interactive displays. “Our goal was to deliver an innovative, meaningful benefit of new home purchase,” said Little. “We’re delighted to offer HomeSmart at Aliento–and delighted to show buyers the lighter side of new home technology!” Does this look familiar?
